Hullo! I'm feeling quite vexed and worried now after checking the email. CT results are not all out yet but looking at the bits and pieces I currently have, I'm not feeling optimistic at all. Actually, I have never ever felt optimistic about any JC test result before. Hmmm.

Anyways, band prac on Wednesday was ok I guess. Finally decided on the set peice, though I must say that I find our choice to be very limiting for our capabilities, or actually what we're really good at. But whatever.

I think the band still sounds the same as last time... or is it just me? And my section as well. I think we need to stop taking the pieces when we've got all the notes and stuff already and focus on some section technique building.

Though I'm now feeling quite happy with myself because I breaked my C on Wednesday and now I can reach D when I'm not tired. Yippee! But I think I should stop going up now because my notes below low F sounds like shit. Actually it sounds like a ship.... that sound that they make when smoke comes out of the chimney and the ship sets off. Gah.

I should stop playing poker too because I keep losing money! Gambling is really really bad I realised. Should stop it. Or play with moderation. :)

Getting my Samsung K-3 this Saturday. Yeah! It's a DAP and the sound quality is much better than iPod Nano (or at least what I heard the other day) and it's 30 bucks cheaper! It actually makes Nano sound flat... and I think it's so much sexier than Nano.

And I'm going for ACJC concert on Sunday! I hope it's good. Missed SYO's yesterday though so feel quite bad. And I discovered that ROUHUI is in SYTO for quite a while and she didn't tell me! RAWR! Lousy junior!

Ok. I better start doing some work now if not it won't be long before I'm going to feel optimistic about anything.

Happy belated 18th birthday to me.


And I'm only one hour and forty four minutes late.



Oh! And I almost forgot. Happy belated birthday too, Kiera Knightley.

Ok. The movie buffy part of my mind has just been declared victorious over the logical part of my brain by overruling its conscience for studying and deciding to show it's extent of joy by sharing its sources of its happiness.

Tahdah!





IMDB has currently made me very very happy. :) And it's trailer is coming out next Monday!

I can't wait! OK. Back to work.

I'm squeezing a little time in here for blogging because I suspect that I would be horribly busy the next week because of CTs. Which kind of means I have to push my movie watching to after CTs.

A Tempo XVIII ended yesterday. Frankly, I dunno what to say about it. Just like what Mr. Oura said, it was not good enough, and not lousy enough. Somewhere in between I guess. Every factor chipped in to our, hmmm, how to say, failure to reach excellence last night? I couldn't really use de___e. I find myself frequently going back to the purpose and roots of the whole thing and finding nothing much there. And I feel really apologetic to the seniors who came back last night just to listen to La Mer.

Though I must thank people who came all the way to watch with gifts and flowers and hearty words of encouragement! Thank you very very much! :) I really really appreciate your support and I'm sorry we didn't play at a better standard.

I would have blogged more if not for the lack of time and my reluctance to write some stuff down. Anyhow, I shall mug the whole week for CTs and try to achieve decent results. And also go back and practice so horn for it is my habit to deprove by a great deal after a very intense concert.

I have discovered new found interest and fondness for Pride and Prejudice after finally watching the movie. Kiera Knightly is wonderful! I loved that doomed giggle when she stepped out of the carriage at Pemberley. And the guy who played Mr. Collins redefined the character for me; I have never found him so repulsive before.

It is so weird that after being around Suang the past few days, I am looking at literature in a new light. Particularly after his recitations of excerpts from "Anthony and Cleopatra". (something about Anthony riding the horse and Cleopatra wanting to be the horse) He reminded me that literature is, after all, alive and supposed to be spoken and read out to appreciate it's full effect. I guess I have been reading too much non-fiction and lecture notes for me to forget that important aspect of reading itself. Goodness.

GP common test is officially screwed for, and by, yours truly. Spent ages picking a question, and picked a tricky one still. Comprehension was no better. I have absolutely no idea how to write the AQ; it's weird! Ah well, the whole thing was a fiasco, not unlike other GP common tests.

A Tempo is nearing. Reached home at ten thirty today because of ticketing matters. And I have concluded from the experience that no f**cking way am I ever ever going to go into accountancy. My god, all the serial numbers and money and tickets to be accounted for. Gave me such a headache. I can't even get my own tickets straight. Just not made for this kind of stuff. I'm scared for concert. I really am.

Got so many things to blog about but I sincerely forgot what. Sin cera.

I feel exposed suddenly to a number of latin phrases. Quid pro quo. Status quo. Per capita. Per se. Veni, Vidi, Vici. Aurum protestas est. Felix culpa. Magnum opus. Et tu, Brute? Et cetera. Ad nauseum. Carpe diem. Dues ex machina. Ad hominem. Ceteris paribus. Cognito ergo sum. Non sequitur. And of course, not forgetting our dear Auspicium melioris aevi. Ok. I'm blabbering again.

Pride and prejudice!
